Education

Armed with relevant data and a willingness to explore it, the Sandbox ColLABorative and Southern New Hampshire University are fulfilling their mission to challenge the status quo and transform students’ lives. Sandbox is SNHU’s in-house consultancy and “academic R&D” unit, focused on innovation and emerging trends in education and the marketplace. Using tools from Emsi, the Sandbox team produces deliverables for a variety of committees and groups at SNHU.

Emsi is pleased to announce the rollout of new, enhanced skills data in Analyst and Developer. Historically, Job Posting Analytics and Program Market Demand reports have displayed the skills most frequently requested in employer job postings, providing a useful snapshot of the demand for those skills in the labor market. But demand is only half the equation. That’s why we’re introducing a side-by-side comparison of both demand and supply of top skills.

Emsi is pleased to announce the addition of data related to distance offered academic programs to Analyst. This new functionality—now live for Analyst users—provides data to help institutions address whether a program should be offered at distance capacity.

Emsi is pleased to announce brand new education-level and program filters in Alumni Insight. This added functionality enables users to analyze the career outcomes associated with academic programs of various education levels, in both the regional and the national economy. We’re thrilled to deliver this update, as it opens the door to a wealth of new analysis related to student outcomes.
